Eero mesh wifi: Do I regret buying it? 3 Reasons you shouldn’t get it.

How can add the eero as a bridge ? Another question can I add any of the eero models to another model eero mesh system, for example, can I add the eero 6 unit to eero 6 pro or 6 plus mesh system ?

the stupid "one main device" interface of the Eero is a deal breaker for me.

I just got my new fibre connection by giganet, and got eero 6 pro but the app is telling me that there is an issue, after I put my WiFi name and password, it can't end setup process.
The Giganet told me that is because I'm using android phone, and it works with iphon because of software. I don't believe it.
They want to send me Technicolor instead.
What do you think guys?

A power spike shuts everything down. If you are away, someone needs to go into your home and restart the modem and the eero. It’s happened twice in less than three months while we have been away. Solution seems to be an uninterruptible power supply.

Do you have to pay for the app?

Don't buy the original eero mesh. It doesn't support PPPoE which means it can't connect to the ISP.

All going to be on it soon got no choice but to have it soon

Why would I buy a router with only 2 ethernet ports and no USB port?

Had eero for last 2yrs, yes coverage for entire home 3 rooms, i also increased my mbps to 300, but you will need a mesh system

This seems like a good way to get Amazon a detailed view into your entire networks Internet traffic. Both Bluetooth, wifi, nfc, nearby, or even Ethernet devices connected to with wifi access points. EVERYONE has wifi ap enabled by default. It's set up. Consider that.

I’ve owned it less than a year and I’m having so much trouble. My speeds were constantly max speed then all of a sudden it dropped and has been terrible for several months. Everyone saying that this is good will soon have trouble after a few months

It’s not like Apple at all. It comes with a charger. Oohhh buurrnnn 😮too soon?

The new gen is good enough I have no prob

Do you pay once and get wifi forever once you buy it?

Every pod has to be connected with a patch lead? Thanks.

In the UK the eero 6 supports ppoe I replaced the BT hub with it.

If my isp is quite slow is it still worth getting

eero is actually awful please if you're considering buying this DON'T. My family purchased this last month and I honestly would rather fucking shoot my self in the fucking head then to ever fucking have to deal with such shitty wifi in my life. Constant disconnects, Randomly the fucking light goes red for literally no fucking reason and for what? 300$??????? for non functioning wifi????????? holy fucking shit thats crazy. Please for the love of god no buy this shit it a actually fucking sucks so bad PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Have captive portal ? Bandwidth limited ?

I installed one last week and had a lot of drop outs. Worked with their support but no better luck. Ended up returning it.

I've got one through agl and I must say it's simple looks nice and does a decent job

I'm convinced these things are for simpletons who love their little apps. Oh how cute. I can operate my router with my app. I would never have this. Give me a fully featured web interface any day.

The easy setup is all good when everything works but the moment you run into issues (e.g. channel conflicts with neighboring wifi) the "simple" options are just not sufficient to fix any issues. Lack of advanced options and configuration make this a risky purchase.

What I find interesting is that the gen 5 Echo and echo dots work as repeaters for the Eero and the gen 4 echo and echo dots are receiving software updates to also be repeaters for Eero. What I hate is that it takes a subscription to access the advance features.

Eero sucks

I mean, basically you said its a simple router thats rock solid/stable, and the higher end models have amazing wifi. I dont really see any cons. Most consumers dont need all the crazy extra stuff. Its hard enough these days to find something as solid as this product is. Look anywhere, all you see is (mostly) really good reviews, and the cons are very minor. So you have to pay for some dumb extra features? They arent even needed for the router to function really well. My only big issue I would ever have regarding this system, is what amazon might do with your data, otherwise, it sounds like I might drop my Amplifi Alien and just get something simpler and well...maybe even more reliable overall. Seems like amazon listens and slowly integrates features, and also sounds like they are constantly trying to fix things and make them work better, meanwhile alot of companies dilly dally around and never get their shit straight lol. Its not a surprise that this product is highly rated.

I can't stand the eero, I had a netgear router that worked perfectly, but didn't have the range I needed. I bought the eero and loved it for about a week, but ever since then, it will randomly disconnect a few times a day and leave the house without internet for 1-10 minutes. I have tried everything, and nothing seems to work. Might just have to bite the bullet and buy a new router again.

+£60 SETUP CHARGE NOT TOLD ABOUT

Nah this thing makes almost no difference 🤣 I set em up all over my house, they’re 💩

How is a specification a bad thing when that is the specification and YOU purchased it? If something doesn't fit your specs, it's not for you, so don't buy it. That's like rating an apple with a con, when you wanted a steak. WTF!

Excellent content, but you had me dying laughing when that you are code hit the ground…

does every eero require an ethernet cable or can some be just plugged into a wall socket

What should I do if the signal keeps falling off???

There not bad but they alway be updating maintenance which takes days

How do I stop my pc from bouncing around to different eeros around the house

things has changed, eero 6+ and eero Pro 6E are now available in Australia, it support PPOE and the advance security subscription is available as well.

i think orbi sucks..

Is it good for gaming because am a gamer

I was an early adopter of EERO. It’s the best wi-if system I’ve ever owned. It’s so simple and powerful. You won’t have to worry about fiddling with the Wi-Fi anymore, it just always works like it should.

Very helpful. About to go full force with my Ring Alarm Pros built in Eero.

Best mesh system is ASUS’s AI-mesh. I’m running 1 tri-band with 6E as the main, and two dual-band ASUS routers. Of course you can just run 3 tri-band or 3 dual-bands. All 3 of my routers are ROG and Wifi-6. At the moment my phone gets about 800mb down everywhere inside the house both up and down stairs, with smooth transition between routers. My ISP speed is 1000mb down which I do get when wired in.

Both mesh routers are wired directly to the main router and positioned to 3 areas of the house with main upstairs.

If you want to copy this, remember to set 2.4G to 40hz, channel 11, and 5G to 80hz, channel 48 with auto DFS off. Under game accel/QoS, disable QoS and game prioritizing. With WIFI-6 this isn’t necessary, for serious gamers their PC are wired in via Ethernet anyway.

looks like it replaces your retour my modem and router and same unit. Will i have to buy separate router

Just got it for my 729 sq ft apartment for 62$.

eero 6 pro is shit, I am grtting half the speed of gateway standing right next to the pod

bro this WiFi is good but my is being funky because it keeps shutting off

Reminded!!! You said max speed 46kb & 21kb fastest internet??? Yu sir tripping

does eero pro 6 improve call signal... the problem here is call signal, wifi works fine tho

Is it true that it requires a subscription to be used ?

Great video - thanks mate.
Where did you get the details on which NBN providers use PPoE and which use DHCP?
